    • Once you have the OpenAPI specs, you can build an MCP server on top of that. Automatically. You don't have them ? There's MITM2Swagger[0] that will do it's best to infer it.…

  • Why open source and under which license

  • How is validation and hallucination handled

    From 1 comment
    • Great idea, congrats. Can you speak a bit about the the validation piece? Were LLM hallucinations an issue and required this? Are you using some kind of structured output feature?
